My lil nugget. Helping to wash the floor lol!

My countdown has begun!  I leave Friday for MI - Oli's party is Saturday and he turns 1 on Monday!!  I am one happy Lolli!

He loves his kitty!

Sooooo cute!  Safe travels and can't wait to hear about the big birthday!

Happy Birthday!   Our Cameron turned 1 yesterday.  Daddy is still deployed and was all in his feels yesterday.  The WiFi wasn’t working well enough to FaceTime. But he did get some pictures and a video.  Baby boy #2 for them is doing well and on target for the end of August.  Crossing our fingers daddy will get to be home.  
   

Happy Birthday to Cameron!  I can't believe how quickly this year has gone by.  Man I'm sorry that daddy wasn't able to FaceTime with them for his birthday but glad he did get pictures and a video.  I can't imagine how hard that is :(  And I can't believe baby #2 is almost here - I'm crossing my fingers and my toes that daddy will get to come home!

Precious pictures!!  I bet you were in heaven!

mariecb - I sure was!

My hubby was excited to see him too when we flew back to CA for MIL's 90th bday.

And this is him waiting for daddy to get home from work....

;-D

Lil Oli starts swim lessons next week!  Excited to see how that goes for him ;-D

Lil Oli is getting older so fast!  WOW- swimming lessons.  They are so important I believe!  I used to be a lifeguard and swimming lesson teacher!!

Picking flowers in the garden ;-D

mariecb - I'm hoping he does well with the swim lessons.  We have a pool here in CA so it will be nice when he visits if he can swim!  They don't have a pool at their house in MI but they do have lots of lakes they go to.

They went to the fair and Oliver won himself a stuffed animal!

And swim lessons start today ;-D

How adorable!  I hope swim lessons go well!!

They said he had fun at his first swim lesson - didn't cry lol!  And they even put him under water....

Swim lessons going well! He doesn’t like to float on his back but everything else he’s enjoying. And B was able to get in the pool with him today too!

Wonderful time spent together!! 

The Discovery Museum in Ann Arbor

Happy day! My sailor is home, showered and reconnecting with his son. Although his beagle Copper seems to be the one in his lap snuggling. lol.   He was chosen to arrive ahead of the ship and will relieve those in his division once they do return.  We plan to go visit the first week of August as of now.  Baby boy number two is expected the first week of September.  

Yay!  So glad your son was able to come in a little early!  I'm sure Cameron is soooo excited to see daddy!  I can't believe how quickly the next little one will be here - time sure flies.  And now your son should be home for the birth?  Fingers crossed that no underways are scheduled any time soon....

How heartwarming to hear your sailor is home and with family!  Enjoy all your time together!!  NMH's

Hope you are all having a wonderful 4th of July long weekend!  I have 10 family staying under our roof so it's busy and lots of fun!

They sat in the car to watch fireworks - Oli loved them!

They went to the Dodger game in Detroit!
